“We are so proud of our culture here at HR Solutions and it is wonderful that not only do our team believe it to be a great place to work, but an independent panel agree! This award means a great deal to us all.

“Congratulations to all the winners—it was a brilliant evening.”

Matt Manners, Founder, The Inspiring Workplaces Group, commented: “Congratulations to the Top 50 Inspiring Workplaces across UK & Ireland! As the world seems to be facing more widespread and serious challenges, it is more vital than ever for organisations (big and small) to put their people first. Fostering environments and cultures their people both believe in and want to belong to.

“Focusing on the personal development and caring for the people you employ will not only drive performance but protect the wellbeing of those individuals. Doing so companywide will lead to higher performing teams and enable your organisation to outstrip the competition. Being PeopleFirst isn’t a nice to have, it’s a business imperative!”
